Administrators customize policy settings

Administrators create SiteAdvisor Enterprise Plus policies in the ePO Policy Catalog and assign

them to managed systems running the SiteAdvisor Enterprise Plus client software. You can

assign the same policy settings to all managed systems, or to groups of managed systems that

perform similar tasks and require the same type of access and protection.

Configure policies in SiteAdvisor Enterprise Plus to achieve the right level of browsing protection

for your users. Note that both the Authorize List and Prohibit List policies are multiple-instance

policies. These policies allow for a profile of settings through the application of multiple policies

under a single policy instance. This can be helpful if you want to apply a default list of sites,

and add entries for a particular group or all groups. Instead of updating the entire list with the

new entries, you can create a second policy instance for the new entries and apply it and the

default list together. The effective policy is then the combination of the two policy instances.

Description
